You could argue that we don't really need props, that a quality strike second rower is more what we need, and I would probably agree with you. But, when quality comes on the market which is an upgrade to what we have, we should show interest.

Packer, Matulino, Napa, Twal as our front line, with Sue, Grant, Felise all as backups would be quite formidable.

Definitely could do with another prop and Napa would be perfect. I'm not sure Felise is even the mix is he? He didn't get a look in at all last season.

I really want us to get Crichton or Napa. Both are really quality players who will be superstars in the next 2-3 years. They're the kind of players that can win you games.

I want to see us beating out other teams for players. I want the Tigers to be an enticing destination for footballers to want to come and play for. And not just because we're throwing the most money at them but, because we've got a good and successful team culture.

It'll probably take a little bit of time before that's a reality but, I'm hopeful that in the next season or 2 it will be.

as much as i and all of us on this forum want 1 or both of these players, lets cut to the real world we are maybe 500-1 to even get close. its like some teams shop at myers we shop at payless, just hope under IVAN things change.

Yep we are bit like cryptonite to Superman when it comes to attracting players in their prime. Just not going to happen at this point. A lot riding on this current squad to change that perception

Spending significant money on another prop would be a massive waste of money. We've got more depth in the front row than perhaps we ever have. So id say no to Napa. If we are going to discuss fantasy signings than Crighton is the guy to talk about.

I don't know about Crichton. Good first season but I honestly think forwards need more than just 1 good season to become something special. I'm not saying he's worth the punt, but I am saying I don't think he's worth a bidding war.

He's pretty quick for a backrower but that will wane... how good are his lines and his defence long-term?

I can think of a long list of first-year impressive forwards that couldn't sustain it.
